Fort Fisher Sunset…

Been a while since my last post. Working full time, school full time and full time family man seem to take up the majority of my time. However I have a few sessions booked for this month and a wedding coming up so should be back to posting in no time. Took a little vacation a couple weeks ago to Cali. Flew into San Diego then out of San Fran a week later. Did a lot of cool stuff and got a lot of sweet photos. I’ll have a post of those coming up soon. First off I wanted to post some landscape photo I took down at Fort Fisher on March 06. For those of you subscribed to my Facebook or Flickr, these are old news, but I wanted to shoot em up on the blog either way. Enjoy!

CB State Park Marina

Here’s a few from a sunset at the Marina. Click on the thumbs to enlarge. Or click here for prints.

Carolina Beach State Park

Here’s a slideshow I compiled from the last couple of days. I’ve spending a lot of time hiking and exploring through the park (its in my backyard) and I think I’m going to continue to carry the camera a long. On this particular trip, I was actually hoping to run into some deer, so I brought along the 300 milly. I’m glad I did, because this Owl swooped down over my head and perched itself in a tree in front of me. Never did get a shot of a deer though. It’ll happen though, oh yes, it will happen.

Easter Sunset…

Had Easter dinner down at Wrightsville Beach last night. As some storm clouds were moving in, I noticed rays of sun shining through the clouds, so I went out onto the dunes and shot a few shots. Here’s one.

HDR…

This is my first attempt at HDR. The photo is an older one, but its one of my only older landscapes that I shot in RAW. As you can see from the image the photomatix watermark is still on the photo, as I haven’t purchased the software yet. This effect would be really helpful in situations, such as this one, where the sky is bright, and the foreground is underexposed. I plan to try this sometime soon on a shoot where I can pre-plan for this effect.
